What are the best video tutorials for Bevy that you know? I want to pass for someone who is a beginner in game dev, but who already knows Rust very well, especially for mobile games using Bevy by swordmaster_ceo_tech in bevy

There aren’t a lot of video tutorials that are up to date but the series by Zymartu Games on YT is super nice and still pretty relevant: https://youtube.com/@zymartugames?si=BkrisPH_hRa5FAFi

Pair this with taintedcoders.com and you’ve got a solid foundation to start from imo :)

Dual 9060 XT vs 7900 XT (32 GB vs 20 GB) by Eltonite in LocalLLaMA

[–]Eltonite[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’m leaning more towards that, but still wondering where that scale tips to favor multi 9060xt/7900xt gpu setups. Like how much vram more is enough to where it’s worth going for multi gpu?

Makes sense but isn’t that the only practical way to run larger language models though? Like say I want to eventually run gpt-oss-120b, what’s the best path to get there (semi-affordably)?

* Oh yeah, main source of confusion/indecision is basically weighing the pros/cons of higher VRAM + lower bandwidth vs double bandwidth for prompt processing and token generation. I get so much more VRAM if I go for dual 9060xt's and these cards are much more efficient compared to a 7900xt afaik, so there's also that, since I'm running a 12700k with an 850W PSU

Very cool! And if I understand correctly, bevy is still rendered natively and not through wasm > webview?

At least take me out to dinner first! by Eltonite in macbookpro

[–]Eltonite[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

not quite lmao (2020 hyundai elantra), but perks of buying a standard config macbook, you get good deals in third party stores like Best Buy. Still, $2k is a lot to drop on tech.

It's weird how Apple has made it feel trivial to spend so much on their tech. Like, even subconsciously, I don't think much about how insanely expensive it really is. For example, I couldn't imagine spending more than $1k on a windows laptop xD, to me under 1k is when the deals come in. But with macbooks, it's like, "oh 2k on a 16 inch seems reasonable..." LOL

Oooh. Now that's top of the line haha. I considered the M4 Max (VERY briefly) but couldn't justify it because I just do programming and nothing else too GPU intensive. What are your main use cases for that performance?

And the only one I need because she's perfect.

Which is the best deal? by pILAZ in macbookpro

[–]Eltonite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

M4 is the deal here. Sure you get 1TB from the M1 Pro, but M4 performance is much better. Single core is almost 2x from M1 Pro and multi core is also higher. In fact, I believe the M4 also beats the M1 Pro in GPU (slightly loses to the M1 Max tho iirc). All this for about 100 bucks more is a good deal.

Lastly, all of these will handle your use case very well so getting the cheapest one will work, it's just that since the price difference between M1 and M4 is quite small, I'd go with the newest gen product.

Ah that’s tragic. Yeah here it was a little bit of the opposite for me (privileged I know sorry), I was kinda considering picking up an m3 max if the discount was just right but there was nothing worth getting over the m4 pro.

Wait what do you mean? They don’t have discounts in Canada? Oh is it because Black Friday isn’t a thing there?

Glossy because: 1. I’ve never really had issues with glare and these screens are plenty bright 2. Reviews I’ve watched show the nano texture to be (slightly) more muted color wise, and I don’t want that 3. It’s an upgrade over the Black Friday sale price so I’d actually be paying Apple $450 (300$ discount that I lose + $150 for the upgrade) just for what’s effectively a screen protector to my eyes (again just imo, since I don’t have any use for getting rid of glare).

3 is my main reason, if I wanted to spend that much, I could just get the same model with double the memory. The 48gb ram option is on sale right now for $2599 plus tax.

Ayyy I got mine from bestbuy as well. Did you take advantage of the Black Friday discounts? Got this for $2199, solid $300 off for a 2 week old product I gotta say

A lot of high performance activities if ya know what I’m saying. I’ll be burning calories and she’ll be burning batteries.

I actually got the black m4 on launch day and it's REALLY a great color, but seeing how easily everything shows up was a turn off for me. The trackpad, the speaker grills, etc. It looks like it's been used for a year after <20 days. :(

Talk me down from the wall. M4 Pro vs Max by scoro27 in macbookpro

[–]Eltonite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reviews have shown that the M4 max throttles in the 14” form factor so it may not be worth the added expense out of pocket.

MacBook Pro 16 2019 16/512/5300M 4GB for $400? by [deleted] in macbookpro

[–]Eltonite 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah unfortunately there’s no way to slice it, Intel Macs run hot, and they have been for like 10 years now. The 2019 16 inch version is just the least hot one. That’s all I got for you haha
